On tap at McGillicuddy’s, Williston, Vermont.
This was poured into a mini tulip.
The appearance was a hazy bronzed orange color with a slim finger’s worth of white foamy head that dissipated within less than a minute. Barely any lacing, but what was there dissipated immediately into the beer.
The smell had some sweet and bitter pine running into sweet and bitter citrus, seemed to blend somewhat nicely. Light rind-like qualities show the bitter aspect about it.
The taste was semi-sweet drawing a light bitterness from the rind-like qualities bleeding into the aftertaste and allowing a sly little bit of bitter to semi-sweet finish.
On the palate, this one sat about a light to medium on the body with a nice sessionability about it. Carbonation runs fairly light allowing the bitterness of the IBU’s to be the bulk of the pounding on my tongue.
Overall, nice AIPA, hits everything of the marks of the qualities. I’d have again.

Growler thanks to Leighton. It pours lightly amber with a small white head. The nose is soft, juicy, melon, greengage, grass and some pine needles. The taste is crisp, bitter, grassy hops, melon, mellow sweetness and more melon towards the finish. Medium body and fine carbonation quite a lot of melon and not much else. Ho hum.

Growler shared in NH. Pours mostly clear gold with a creamy white head. Nice mellow tangerine aroma, pale bread. Medium sweet flavor with some sugary white bread, more tangerine, light oily pine. Medium bodied with average carbonation. More citrusy hops in the finish, slight grassy bitterness, bready pale malts. Not bad.
